Brazil: Seeking Common Ground
Artisanal fishing communities in the Brazilian Amazon are struggling to maintain their traditional ways of life in the face of threats to tenure rights.
Discussing small-scale artisanal fishing in Brazil is a major challenge, considering the immense length of the coastline and continental water systems. The activity is a combination of numerous and complex characteristics, based on regions, biomes, landscapes and their people; then there are cultural, social, political and economic aspects. Even with this enormous diversity, common conditions, transformations and challenges emerge in the contemporary context. Several groups of Brazilian artisanal fishermen and fisherwomen struggle to maintain and reproduce their traditional ways of life.
